Jayne Middlemiss has practised Yoga for a decade. She knows it’s a big part of the Hindu religion, but beyond that it’s a mystery to her. In The Beginner’s Guide to… Yoga , she embarks on a personal journey of discovery that takes her along the Ganges, the holiest river in India, to its source in the Himalayas, where she hopes to find spiritual enlightenment.

Although she is initially frustrated by her experience, an extravagant purchase leads to a massive realisation and an emotional release. Will this prepare her for the climax of her trip, when she will bathe in the source of the Ganges?
